Have taken a few pics there of my 67 gto with freighters in the back ground. Another spot is just south of there at the coast guard boat.

Default Blue water bridge

After 5 years of collecting cobwebs, I've decided to get my butt in gear and get this thing done. Working on the wiring and new dash now, hoping to fire it up soon. Thanks to all of those on this forum and at Norwalk this year for the help and inspiration.

Just bought this one.......has not arrived yet. Its been sitting in the Arizona desert for last 30 years. Its suppose to be complete 4cyl auto. Deliver middle of October. I'm in Pennsylvania. Not sure what direction I am going to go with it. Restomod or full resto. Guess it will depend on just how complete it is.

Default It is done!

I just finished the restore (well is anyone ever really done?) and I'm very happy with it. Need to take it out for a photo shoot before I ding it up... Here are a couple of shots taken today.

I haven't added up the receipts yet (nor has the wife) but I'm sure I could get my money back, my time??? Now to enjoy this ride and on to the other project car.

Very nice looking car. Looks like you did a great job to keep another "Ropeshaft" on the highway! Looking forward to seeing more pictures.

For those who don't frequent the "Boost" section, here's a picture of my '63 doing a burnout at our local track last Friday night. I made my first two passes with the new blower set-up, but my tuneup still has a long ways to go. The eventual goal is to get the car into the sevens.

Likely to break into my top 5 forum 'Tri-Six' cars --

That's right, I just hi-jacked a coveted bowtie parlance!
